I'm a pirate in Tokyo
Volume 1 The Jolly Roger of Faith Chapter 70 Meaning
Crowe was sitting on the throne at the bottom of the hall, looking at Bucky who was squatting in front of him, being suppressed by the Green-Horned Ghost, and monitoring the words and deeds of Wu Sheng and the others.
He felt in his heart that this society could not get better. What on earth should gluttons do to satisfy them? He almost shed tears in despair. He felt that the world of sin was full of oppression against gluttons. When would gluttons really stand up?
Now he has no way to defeat the four pirates. After knowing the fighting strength of the four, he never thought about fighting head-on. Wu Sheng and Nami defeated the only four elites under his command, plus Zoro and Luffy, he must kneel down!
But he knew that the four of them would face an existence that he was also... extremely afraid of, but the cowardice of being unable to kill the intruder made him furious!
Although he wanted to vent his anger on Bucky, Bucky was still useful to him now, so he continued to prepare his plan to make up for it. Wen Yan asked: "Bucky, we should have no grievances and no grudges, right?"
In the first round of questioning, Bucky poured out the beans and explained his details clearly.
Hearing Crowe's gentle tone, he felt happy. There seemed to be hope of living?
Bucky quickly burst into tears and expressed that he was wronged: "No, no, I was dragged in by the group you mentioned inexplicably. How about you let me go? I don't know your real name, so it's impossible for you to come in again." ”
After listening to his words, Nue finally couldn't hold back his anger and cursed in Bucky's heart: "Shame!" "Coward!" "Trash!" "Trash!"
Even Orobosi, who had always been on Bucky's side, couldn't stand it any longer and shook his head: "Bucky, just get over it now. If Shanks and the others find out about this, you will be laughed to death."
"Asshole! Who caused me to fall into this situation!"
Nue's tone was solemn: "If you hadn't been running away and hiding from the world of crime and the palace in the past few years, how could you have ended up like this?"
Bucky lowered his head and didn't look at Crowe, his heart full of resentment: "What's wrong with wanting to live? What's wrong with wanting to be happy? I didn't come in voluntarily in the first place, right?"
"You really look like a dog now." Nue sneered.
"A dog is better than a corpse!" Bucky said bitterly. He was about to continue spraying, but because he didn't answer Crowe's words for a long time, he was kicked hard in the butt by the green-horned ghost who was pressing him.
Gluttonous Crow sat on top of the throne: "Answer me, friend, do you want to live or die?"
Bucky didn't hear what he just said, but it didn't matter: "If you want to live, if you want to live, tell me how to let me go."
"Haha... It's really refreshing to talk to mature and smart people... Listen up..."
------
"All success in life is illusion, all success is bubble, your desire will be spurned, only through endurance can you obtain happiness... Don't you... understand?" In the office in the vault The pot-bellied Mediterranean Shadow's Evil Mind roared in an inhumanly mixed voice.
"Um, I'm asking you how to get out." Wu Sheng reluctantly held the handle of the knife and looked at the human shadow in front of him that roared like a defeated dog and said.
"Why do you want to go out? Isn't it good to live, exist, and endure the ordinary in such a happy and stable space?"
"But we are just visitors, not here to work, uncle." Nami was thinking carefully about her words from behind.
However, Nami's words seemed to trigger the shadow's crazy mode, and he screamed: "No, I don't want to go out. The world outside is only poverty and hunger, endless contempt and contempt. Now that you have come in, I advise you not to go out either." ! The work is all for your own good! It’s for your own good! Do you understand!?”
As he screamed, the stinky black air spread out from his facial features, and then covered his whole body, turning into a green-skinned evil ghost with distorted features. Wu Sheng sighed helplessly, and slashed out with the light of his sword, cutting the evil ghost in two.
"What's the number?" he asked feebly.
"I don't know, I can't count... These human shadows seem to be able to communicate, but in fact, as long as a certain keyword is triggered, they will immediately become crazy and turn into evil spirits. It's too difficult to deal with..." Nami rubbed her temples with both hands. She had touched many keywords by mistake, causing countless ghost transformations.
"How about we eat first?" Luffy touched his stomach.
They had been walking in this endless corridor for an unknown amount of time, and had interrogated many human shadows, but in the end they all ended in failure. None of these human shadows wanted to hear the words "go out" or "leave".
There is a kind of anxiety and nihility permeating this corridor and office space, which is a melancholy that cannot be touched by any time and years. As a few people kill more and more ghost-turned human shadows, this melancholy, anxiety and nihilism becomes more and more intense. strong.
"This corridor now not only has no end in sight, but also the back." Zoro said.
Wu Sheng looked back, oh, it's true, there is no way back and there is no end of the corridor, isn't this what life is all about?
Wu Sheng thought for a while, then expressed his inner feelings: "Think optimistically, doesn't this corridor serve as a metaphor for our lives? Moving forward, there is no end ahead, but everyone is telling us to stay. ,do not leave......"
"When you say that, it's quite romantic?" Nami sensed the meaning and reluctantly praised him hesitantly.
"I didn't expect that this palace would have fewer shadows and more troubles. I really want to punch that Crow away!" Luffy said frantically.
"Let's eat something to fill our stomachs first, but don't go out too much. I don't know how long we will be trapped here." Wu Sheng took out his mobile phone and looked at the time. It was almost 8 o'clock in the evening. At this time, he also felt that He was very hungry, so he took out four sandwiches from his backpack and handed them to them. The four of them stood there and finished their dinner hastily.
After finishing the food, they took out the energy drink and drank a few more sips. Finally, they felt that their mental state was better, and they started the interrogation plan again. However, after so many interrogations in the previous round, all four of them found out that there was indeed only one door. There are shadows only when black air comes out of the cracks. Those normal door cracks are projections of human consciousness that cannot interfere with interaction.
But unfortunately, no matter how they tried, played, changed the questions or used clichés, they ultimately could not get the answer that left this level.
The four people quickly ran forward and then stopped in the corridor. Judging from their moving speed, they had walked tens of thousands of meters.
Then he asked whether to kill dozens or a hundred human shadows.
Finally, they reached the end of this straight corridor.
This is a double door.
The long hours of running and the depressing comments of those human shadows made the four of them lose their morale. Even Luffy was feeling bored at this time.
"I will never be a social worker when I grow up..." Nami, whose goal before meeting Luffy was to get into a good university and become a bank clerk, said.
"The remarks made by these uncles or sisters are too terrifying... Is life really that terrifying?" Zoro also shuddered.
Luffy folded his head and said, "I don't know, but isn't it good to watch TV series?"
Wu Sheng sighed: "From ancient times to the present, no one has ever been able to obtain something without sacrificing something. If so, it must be because someone paid the price for you."
"Then why do those comics, novels, movies and TV series tell us to look for dreams, love and destiny?" Nami asked.
Wu Sheng was about to answer that dreams are the only things worth fighting for for thousands of years.
Sudden! The double doors in front of them opened automatically without warning, and a blinding white light burst out from the crack in the door.
A deep and magnetic voice came from inside:
"So in the end, it's because human beings' desire is not strong enough, they don't work hard enough, they're not strong enough, and they're not good enough. So those degenerate, failed, hungry, sad, and pitiful remnants of the times still have no way to change themselves. Let alone looking for dreams, they can’t even solve the problems they encounter in life.”
"So we are finally going to see the BOSS?" Luffy looked at the battle, became distracted again, and strode towards the inside.
Wu Sheng and the others did not hesitate and followed Luffy straight in, wanting to see what Crowe was up to.
However, the reality disappointed them, it was not Crow inside.
It was a middle-aged man wearing a slim-fitting custom-made suit. In a large and bright room, another wall of monitors, like a first-floor control room, was emitting dazzling light.
The man's facial features are not as blurry as the shadows that the four of them encountered or were killed by, but are extremely clear. There is a beard on his face, but it can be seen that it is not that unkempt and slovenly, but trimmed and neat.
Seeing the four people coming in, the man stood up. He was 1 meters tall and had unusually broad shoulders. He looked like an elite who spent time exercising.
He pointed at the screen wall behind him, which illuminated the offices in the corridor that Wu Sheng and the four passed by. What amazed Wu Sheng was that this wall was as long as half a football field seat!
"I looked at the small screens in front of me and realized that the world is so cruel, and that all human beings' self-righteous choices are just signs before death.
Human beings live by enduring.
Unwilling to endure. Endure the ordinary.
Endure loneliness. Endure poverty.
Live with hypocrisy. Live with arrogance.
To endure the emptiness. endure the pain.
Living with obesity. Endure low self-esteem.
Tolerate not loving. Endure being loved.
Tolerate the absence of love. Endure all things.
Then he died in depression throughout his life.
What is the meaning of life?
What's the point of being human?
In those moments of pain and disillusionment when groping in the dark, is there anything worth fighting for?
For these people, or you who have just come to this world, what is it that can truly achieve that moment of peace and contentment in your heart?
Should we finally give up everything and surrender to the rules of this world, surrender to money, surrender to rights, and surrender to our own needs as human beings?
And those elusive and unattainable, those self-proclaimed struggles of integrity, those illusory victories are just a dream after all.
After all, the world will continue to follow its own rules. How can we escape from this prison?
What brings you to this point?
And you, do you know what you should pursue? "
As the man continued his long speech, he seemed to be talking about the shadows that had been killed, or the numb and speechless projections of human consciousness, or the four people in front of him.
He opened his hands, raised his chin slightly, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if feeling his own sacred moment...
However, Luffy started yawning mid-sentence...
Wu Sheng listened attentively. Seeing that the man seemed to be waiting for their answer, he wondered: "Who are you? Where is Crowe?"
The man did not blame Wu Sheng for answering the question incorrectly. He was also confused: "Clo? Who is it?"
